Question

Desiree had 35 stickers. She gave each of

3 friends the same number of stickers. She now has
20 stickers left. She then gives the same number of stickers
to each of another 5 friends. How many stickers did she
give each of her 3 friends? Each of her 5 friends? ​

Answer 1

She gave the 3 friends 5, and the 5 friends 4.

35-20=15

15 stickers divided by 3 friends equals 5 stickers each.
